Sound Connections Early Years Conference 2018: exploring the impact of music on health and well-being in early childhood

Date:

Wed, 21/02/2018 - 09:30 - 16:30

Join Sound Connections to delve deeper into the extraordinary role that music and the arts can play in positively affecting health and wellbeing of babies, children in early childhood, and parents and carers.

With the recent powerful publication of the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Arts, Health and Wellbeing, Creative Health: The Arts for Health and Well-being, never more have the creative arts been so widely recognised as an impactful contributing factor to societal health and wellbeing.

Sound Connections are delighted to welcome their keynote speaker and researcher on the APPG report, Dr Rebecca Gordon Nesbitt from Kings College London, to kick start our thinking. We will also hear case studies from early years music practitioners, health professionals and funders, all working on the front line and observing transformative interventions.

Further programme details and speakers will be announced in due course.
